I have to admit, it kind of bothers me that there are so many people bothered by "My Post count",Yeah it kind of sucks we can't go back and say.."Well you said in this thread..." I don't look at someone's post and say..Well they don't know shit because they only have 5 posts....or 5,000 posts....

Yeah I feel sorry for some people that did have to reregister,but Fau did a great job recovering as much data as he did...

Personally, I wouldn't care if we got rid of post counts..after you've got 5 stars that's it....

I mean Other than Tommy trying to be a postwhore..does your Post count really mean that much to you?

If it does this is really a sad day.....

No, but I didn't like that "newbie" by my name.

Post counts are meaningless to me...my vote would be to do away with them entirely.

I'm fucking appalled that my post count has been lowered.  I think that Dave, Fau, et el should be ASHAMED of themselves for allowing this to happen.

ASHAMED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Actually -- I'm with 'Stroke.  Who gives a rat's ass?  Toss "1" and newbie by my name, doesn't matter a shred to me.

Thank you for Dave, Fau and everyone else for their hard work getting the site back and runnng.  The one feature I do miss is the view last post icon, hoping that's coming back.

I personally enjoy anytime someone wants to have a milestone post with pictures of half naked women as well. As a matter of fact I propose we have a new thread every day just for looking at women.

That's a shamefully low number for a nation of approximately 150,000,000 males.  The 144,604,013 guys who haven't created a site honoring the beauty of the female form need to stop slacking!


Regarding post count...

A low post count only means that someone just found the site.  It's zero reflection of his/her knowledge, experience, wisdom or position in life.

On the other hand, a large post count in a short amount of time tends to indicate that someone is an administrator or needs to move out of his/her parents basement and get a life.  Some might even surmise that people who spend the majority of their free time on one website simply may not be smart enough to do anything else.

Well yeah Post count mean something !! Thats why you have many Bitching about it.  I know I am  Grin

Many people spent quite the time putting up  Useful Information and also Useless crap.  Sure its easy to say " Duhhhh move on "  but look at all the fun some of us enjoyed in bashing Cameron,  the cheating Patriots,  and   Giving praise to the NY Giants &  Craig Camarillo for giving Miami a win.  STuff like that most people like to go to and say hey " I posted that "  Grin

But you knew MANY, MANY, MANY  people were going to bitch about their post count.  Roll Eyes

Apparently it means thw world to a lot of people. Case in point- I only put up like 3 posts today (due to travel), and one was commenting on someone's post count. Suddenly I now have negatives on the Karma meter thing. Looks like people get pissed for being called out on post counts.

For all I care, my post count could say zero and newbie, and it wouldn't matter to me. In fact, maybe I'll go ahead and retire this name, and start a new account. Dave- I'll PM you my new name, so you can add the mod duties to it.

Me too.

FAU, it was a little icon on the far right of the thread after the last person posted, when you clicked on it, it would go directly to the last post (newest) in the thread.
